When Summer Comes

Hello
everyone! Today, we are going to talk about retro and vintage fashion.
Maybe because I really like the both styles so I couldn't decide which
one to present to you. These fashion styles were developed with popular
culture and changed quickly with the influence of rock and roll and
Hollywood movies. These styles of the 40s, 50s and 60s gave way to
others in the 70s and 80s, but the classic quality of these styles have
been coming back in revivals and each time they do, they are updated
just a little bit, infusing the original spirit with a modern day
twist. There is a subtle difference between vintage and retro clothing
styles.

Vintage clothing is the actual clothing
produced in the time period. These garments are very collectible and
desirable by vintage clothing enthusiasts which may include specific
designer labels and material, however since it is often previously worn,
and clothing wears out, vintage clothing is often times hard to find in
good wearable condition. Vintage clothing sizing may be a problem as it
was somewhat different in the 40s 50s and 60s than it is today.

Retro
Clothing is new clothing in classic styles, sometimes called vintage
style. These modern designers are inspired by vintage styles and cuts
from by-gone eras, but are using modern materials and methods to create
these retro-inspired garments. A big advantage of retro style clothing
is that since it is produced today, it is generally easier to find in
desired modern sizing and produced in modern fabrics.
